A toolkit by Christina Leigh
Systems and real-talk for high performers who refuse the tradeoff between a big career and a big life.
Find what's already alive. Remove what's holding it back. Build the conditions for it to compound.

The Wheel of Life Audit brings the same discipline growth teams bring to products to expanding your actual life. Score each area honestly. See where the energy already is. See what's quietly held back.
Then you know exactly where the next experiment goes.
Systems don't need to be complex. They just need to be consistent.
A sample audit.

Quarterly (Re)Calibration Kit
My actual system, productized. The Notion template + guide I use to run my own life the way a growth team runs product.
Most people set goals in January and audit them never.
The Ritual replaces the annual resolution with a quarterly recalibration: score the wheel, read the data, design the next experiment. 90 days later, you do it again. That's the whole trick. The compounding is in the cadence.
The Notion template: the full recalibration workspace, ready to go.
The guided ritual: a step-by-step walkthrough for your quarterly session.
The experiment designer: translate your focus area into a measurable 90d experiment.
The written guide: how to read your scores and what to do with them.
Instant access. Yours forever.

Hi, I'm Christina. Since 2016 I've led growth and experimentation roadmaps for 0→1 startups (Grabr, Elpha, Coa) and mobile product lines at Adobe, building for hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
For years my career got the systems and my life got the leftovers. Life by Experiment is what happened when I stopped accepting that split, and started applying the same discipline I use on products to health, relationships, environment, and craft.
The rest of the system comes from the territory, not the map: two years as a full-time travel creator in my twenties, ten years of life and executive coaching, startup pivots, leadership masterminds, a 200-hour yoga teacher training in Bali, a career break, among other stories.
Read the wheel once and it's a benchmark. Read it every quarter and it becomes a compass.
I write on Substack a few times a month and am building a digital toolkit to go with it, starting with The Ritual, my quarterly (re)calibration kit. Crafted for people like you: high performers who refuse the tradeoff between a big career and a big life.
Start with the free Wheel of Life Audit and get your personal life off the backlog. I can't wait to see what you build.
